Rumia

The Dolina Zagórskiej Strugi Nature Reserve covers areas in Rumia. It protects the Struga, including the trout that live in it, as well as old beeches and oaks on the slopes. Within the reserve, you may only walk on designated paths. Cultural attractions include a town museum, an exhibition on the history of the region, and the ruins of a medieval church with a historic cemetery.

You can walk along the Zagórska Struga from Kamienna Street near Szmelta towards the forest. A hiking trail also leads into the Zagórska Struga Valley. If you want to use the paths in the nature reserve, stay on the designated routes. This lets you combine an outing in nature with an awareness that the protected areas are subject to special rules.

Starowiejski Park lies between Starowiejska and Mickiewicza Streets. Its attractions include a pond and a walking and cycling path along the Zagórska Struga. Another walking and cycling route runs along Żwirki-i-Wigury Street. These details offer different options for walks and bike rides, but do not imply that the routes are connected.

Góra Markowca has an observation tower, a zip line, a playground and a climbing wall with routes of varying difficulty. From the tower, you can look out over the city from more than 112 metres above sea level. This means you will find both a viewpoint and a range of activities in one place; the climbing wall has routes of varying difficulty.

The city park on Starowiejska Street has a small pond, paved paths, benches, playgrounds, wooden gazebos, a footbridge and a kayak landing. These facilities offer another option for spending time outdoors. If you are planning a visit to the park, you can make use of its paths and areas for relaxing.

The Muzeum Miasta Rumi is located in the basement rooms of Stacja Kultura. It is free to visit year-round by prior appointment, with a guided tour. Exhibits include the skeleton of the “oldest resident of Rumia,” coins from the ruins of a Cistercian church, and documents and photographs about life in the post-war period. The museum brings together archaeological finds and the history of the town.

The exhibition “Z dziejów ziemi” is located at the headquarters of the Miejski Dom Kultury, a restored 19th-century manor house. Rumia is also home to the ruins of a medieval church, surrounded by a historic cemetery. If you are interested in regional history, you can consider these different historical points of interest when planning your trip.

A recurring event in Rumia’s calendar is the Międzynarodowy Festiwal Muzyki Religijnej im. ks. St. Ormińskiego, held in October. The Letnie Koncerty Organowe take place in July and August. The 2024 edition included a concert at the Sanktuarium Najświętszej Maryi Panny Wspomożenia Wiernych in Rumia. If music is important to your trip, you can use these seasonal dates as a guide when planning.

Base your search on the experiences you want to prioritize during your stay: nature trails, views and activities, green spaces or culture. Advance booking is important if you plan to visit the museum. If you would also like to explore other destinations, you can find pages here for Smazyno, Ciekocinko, Łężyce, Gowino, Strzebielino Morskie, Choczewo, Kamien and Dobrzewino.
